Looks like H&R will be releasing a front and rear sway bar for our TSXs. Saw it on a web site, no other information available just yet on size and price.

I received my H&R Rear sway bar and went to a garage to get it installed.
but I couldn't get them installed.
The mech. said I probably need a new endlink b/c if he heats the nuts up, the rubber part of the endlink is going to melt (the nut is rusted that are on the endlinks). Is it really necessary?
I have had a clunking sound whenever spring/shocks are uncompressed>compressed on bumps/potholes. He said my endlink may be broken (even though it is visibly solid).
I had a camber kit problem before, so the whole knuckle was moving by about half an inch whenever I go over bumps or on curves so the whole car shook.
I am in the process of trying to figure out where the noise is coming from. So I am trying to tackle one by one (sway bar/endlink then shocks). This is why I ordered rsb. but the mech said he recommends people not to get rsb unless they are racing, b/c it can be dangerous in normal streets due to oversteer. He suggested if I want to put rsb, that I should put a new front sway bar also. Can anyone confirm that he's wrong?

A stiffer rear end when pushed to the limits of tyre adhesion or more on the wet, can result in lift-off oversteer, which is common for drivers to do when the front starts understeering wide.
Putting front and rear upgraded ones on makes sense to a degree, since the neutral-understeering balance of the car is maintained.
But in all honesty, you really have to be giving it some to get the back end to step out.
